Summary of change:
= Project Page Home = My name is Anton, I'm 18, live in Helsingborg Sweden and I'm building a '94 Audi 80 Quattro. It originally has a 2.3L 10v N/A engine in it but I'm building a turbo converted 2.3L 20v to put in it and a GenBoard v3.3 to run fuel injection, boost control and distributorless ignition. I'm doing this partly as a school project, by myself. This page will be mostly about the VEMS related parts of the project, check my page at motorgeek.com for an overview - http://www.motorgeek.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=8757 My biggest inspiration for this project is Javad Shadzi and his car, http://www.80tq.com/20vtMotor.html See InternetHorsePower - Not sure why you made this comment but, Javad is the owner of http://www.034motorsport.com and he's well known in the Audi tuning circuits. He's very professional and * I have no doubt that his numbers are genuine, he knows and lets us know exactly the factors playing in to his dynoing numbers. See http://www.motorgeek.com/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=8814 ** apparently there is no sufficient information to confirm or deny the numbers *** true, but usually there never is to confirm to 100%. if you read a couple of posts down there are comparisons with stock and chipped cars, as a guideline. ** does his 400m time confirms his published HP? *** He doesn't have any recent times, and 402m times have many variables playing in (drives skill/technique, windspeed, road surface etc), so it's not always a good comparison. ** anyway don't expect to easily build a 599 WHP (btw does he really mean whp? or write whp and mean estimated crank hp?) 20VT and run it reliably for long *** Javad's engine is fully built, that's partly why it has held up with more than 500-600whp for 2 years. Also tuning is a big factor when it comes to reliability, and he has a lot of experience with this. Yes he means 640hp at the wheels, as measured by the dyno with no multiplier applied. * Anyway this isn't very relevant since I'm not building the engine to make huge HP numbers, I just want a good mechanical basis to apply the GenBoard to. ** good *** I saw that you're doing a similar project, nice. I've done a lot of research on this, and I'd be glad to share info and experience. ---- == Sections == MembersPage/AntonLilja/PreviousProblems MembersPage/AntonLilja/Wiring MembersPage/AntonLilja/LCD MembersPage/AntonLilja/Assembly MembersPage/AntonLilja/Notes MembersPage/AntonLilja/History ---- == Questions == '''Q''': Is there any benefit in replacing the SMD transient suppr. diode with the big one in Resc1? ** NO. Don't apply reverse supply voltage (or >15V) anyway. '''Q''': I'm following MembersPage/PhatBob/UserGuide and I've connected and powered up the board to the computer. * the keyboard/lcd works * I can work the menus in terminal, say "Man" in TerminalProgram or in the mini-terminal in MegaTune, but when I try to test the connection through Communication Settings it says "No Response!". The settings are as in the userguide. '''before trying megaTune''' * right after reboot (after powerup, default is binary megatune communication mode) ** tried: no success * if you can use the menu commands, it's in "Man" mode in which you will NOT be able to connect for normal MegaTune logging / tuning. Try "bye" (again), maybe you need to close the terminal window, etc...did you say "bye" in TerminalProgram (or terminal window) and received "Bye" from the ECM ? ** tried. But: was the "Bye" answer visible ? - Yes it was. * MegaTune, firmware version ? ** VemsMT1.0.30rc3.zip ** firmware version is 1.0.13 *** mdv : "2005. júl. 5., kedd, 21.13.00 CEST" *** mdV: "1.0.13" Solution: '''These are incompatible'''. Either * find an old MegaTune release matching your firmware (unsupported. the shipped firmware is ment for testing ) * or upgrade firmware. The firmware bundled with the MegaTune is often a good bet (but read GenBoard/UnderDevelopment/FirmwareChanges anyway). * Try another serial cable? ** Does NOT seem to be a problem in your case * Another computer? ** this can work, if the other computer has a MegaTune installed that is compatible with your firmware ;-) * MegaTune install location: ** nope, MegaTune is not picky on the install location. This allows you to have several versions installed (eg. always have one -operational- for each install, eg. your customer's cars too) Thank you for the solution!
